2015 Pinot Noir - Magnum 1.5L
Tasting notes
On the nose, notes of cranberry, black cherry, dried rose petals mix with toast oak aromas. The palate is full and round with red berry fruit blackberry, cherry, with notes of anise completing each sip, finishing with hints of vanilla bean and wood spices. The excellent weight and balanced acidity gives a wonderful shape on the palate. This wine is tasting delicious now and will continue to age and develop even more secondary aromas and flavors over the next few years.
Harvest 2015
For the second year in a row, the 2015 harvest began as one of the earliest on record in Sonoma County. Just after midnight on July 29th the first grapes of the year were harvested in the Russian River Valley.
Farming was a challenge this year with a warm winter, a cool spring and a couple of summer heat waves that resulted in a high-quality vintage but a very small yield compared to the last couple of record breaking vintages. The 2015 vintage has produced tremendous wines both richness and elegance. Make sure you get your hands on some because there is not going to be many produced. Cheers!
